      Senior Front End Developer Interview

      15 Dec 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (New York, NY) in Dec 2021

      Interview

      Had a call with a very nice company recruiter who was interested in my background and thought I could be a good fit. Went along with it as the opportunity sounded interesting and the compensation seemed right. I got forwarded to a technical interview zoom call and my heart sank as two people showed up on the zoom call with no video for either of them, and a limited command of English. They then both proceeded to ask me textbook definition questions about React/React lifecycle, MobX, Typescript, type casting, etc. I was so unhappy with the way the interview was being conducted like a grade-school dictionary, and if these interviewers were any indication of who I was going to work with in the future, that I closed out early. I know that Softvision was acquired by Cognizent which is based in India, but if they want to hire US based developers, their hiring process needs to be less dictionary based and with better speakers of English.
